[TowerTalk] sunnyvale tower procedures?

[George T. Daughters]

Hi all,

I'm strongly considering putting up a new tower.  I live in 
Sunnyvale, California.  I have a tower up now (only 30 feet) that's 
been there for 30 years, and I'm thinking about 55 feet of crank-up.

I went to the planning/zoning/permit office, and they told me I would 
need a permit, but that 55 feet or under was an easy one to get, if I 
submitted the proper drawings, specs, etc.  all of which I'm happy to 
do.  But...

Somewhere I read/heard that Sunnyvale gave some sort of special 
treatment to amateur radio towers.  (Was it no permit needed, or 
what?)  Can anyone e-mail me with any first-hand knowledge?

73,
George T. Daughters, K6GT
